INDIA in Race for IRANs OILFields with CHINAJAPANKorea . Race for IRANs OIL Fields between INDIA CHINA JAPAN . India's oil imports from Iran plunge over gas field row . India imports 3 times of Oils from Iran . Iran Exports Oil to India after Ban lift in 2016 . India is the 2nd largest oil importer of Iran . Iran Ban Lift .
India's oil imports from Iran have fallen to their lowest since June 2016, shipping data shows, in possible retaliation for Tehran not awarding a gas field development to Indian companies.
India, Iran's top oil client after China, shipped in 487,600 barrels per day (bpd) in May, about 9 percent less compared with April and nearly 40 percent less than a peak registered in October, according to ship tracking data obtained from sources and data compiled by Thomson Reuters Oil Research & Forecasts.
Most Western-led sanctions against Tehran's nuclear programme were lifted in January last year, and India's Iranian crude imports began climbing two months later in March.
In the fiscal year to March 2018, though, India has said it plans to order about a quarter less Iranian crude due to a snub over development of Iran's Farzad B gas field.
"We stood by them in difficult times. We still buy substantial amounts of oil from them, and we expect reciprocity from Iran," Indian oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan told reporters on Wednesday when asked if India was still hopeful of getting the development rights for the Farzad B field.
Following years of seeming rapprochement over the field, Iran has likely reached an agreement on the concession with Russia's state-controlled gas giant Gazprom, Russian and Indian media have reported.
Iran last month said India had not offered an acceptable proposal on the Farzad B development.
Sri Paravaikkarasu of energy consultancy FGE said India's lower Iran imports were a "reaction of Iran's decision to award the gas field to Russia and the availability of cheaper grades like those from Russia."
India was one of four countries - China, Japan and South Korea being the other three - that continued to import large amounts of Iranian oil after sanctions were toughened in 2012.
Some of the drop in imports from Iran may be due to lower demand. Overall, India imported about 4.2 percent less oil in May, compared with April, due to a shutdown of the 180,000-bpd Bathinda refinery for upgrades.
In the first five months of 2017, India's oil imports from Iran still jumped about 64 percent, the data showed.
Also In MoneyNews
While Iran's oil exports to India are stalling, supplies to Europe and Turkey hit their highest level since the lifting of sanctions in 2016.
Iraq continued to be India's biggest oil supplier for the second month in a row in May, followed by Saudi Arabia.
Middle Eastern oil in May accounted for 65 percent of India's overall imports, compared to 71 percent a year ago, while the import share of Africa and Latin America have risen, the data showed.
The shift is likely a result of an effort led by the Middle East-dominated Organization of the Petroleum ExportingCountries (OPEC) to cut production to prop up oil prices.

Since its inception, ONGC has been instrumental in transforming the country's limited upstream sector into a large viable playing field, with its activities spread throughout India and significantly in overseas territories. In the inland areas, ONGC not only found new resources in Assam but also established new oil province in Cambay basin (Gujarat), while adding new petroliferous areas in the Assam-Arakan FoldBelt and East coast basins (both inland and offshore).
ONGC went offshore in early 70's and discovered a giant oil field in the form of Bombay High, now known as Mumbai High. This discovery, along with subsequent discoveries of huge oil and gas fields in Western offshore changed the oil scenario of the country. Subsequently, over 5 billion tonnes of hydrocarbons, which were present in the country, were discovered. The most important contribution of ONGC, however, is its self-reliance and development of core competence in E&P activities at a globally competitive level.
Today, Oil and Natural Gas CorporationLtd. (ONGC) is, the leader in Exploration & Production (E&P) activities in India contributing 72 per cent to India’s total production of crude oil and 48 per cent of natural gas.
ONGC’s quest for energy goes deeper than setting new benchmarks in deep-water drilling in the Krishna Godavari Basin or finding new frontiers of energy. Global decline in crude prices notwithstanding, we have taken significant investment decisions diligently and aggressively, reversing the production trend in offshore. And now we are venturing into deeper offshore plays in our quest for energy security. It is this journey that has placed us among Fortune “World’s Most Admired Companies” and ranked us 3rd in the E&P industry globally on the Platts Top 250 Rankings 2014.

Perdido is the deepest floating oil rig (platform) in the world at a water depth of about 2450 meters operated by the Shell Oil Company in the Gulf of Mexico.
The Perdido is located in the Perdido fold belt which is a rich discovery of crude oil and natural gas that lies in water that is nearly 8000 feet deep. The platform's peak production will be 100,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day. At 267 meters, the Perdido is nearly as tall as the Eiffel Tower.
An oil rig is a large structure with facilities to drill wells, to extract and process oil and natural gas, and to temporarily store product until it can be brought to shore for refining and marketing. In many cases, the platform contains facilities to house the workforce as well.

Hello Friends, I welcome you with a new video on my channel RealQuickInfo.
We hope, you will like this video. PleaseLet us share Real Quick Analysis with you in future as well, so please subscribe our channel Real Quick Info. Please don't forget to click on Bell icon as well to get notification, as soon as we upload interesting new video.
Now Lets discuss about today's topic.
India is third largest oil consumer in the world. Our oil demand is naturally bound to increase rapidly in future. You know, Majority of our crude oil is imported from Gulf Countries.
Needless to say, Indian foreign policy and our diplomatic choices were always impacted by this over dependence on Arab Gulf countries.
No wonder, How Modi became first Indian Prime Minister visiting Israel.
The need to diversify the source of crude oil has always been felt, and you remember, India recently imported crude oil from America.
Indian oil companies discovered the Farzad B gas field in Iran in 2008. The deal got stuck in to negotiations, and there is almost no hope that India would get the developmental rights for this gas field in Iran.
Anyways, now its time to move on.
If we ask you, which are the countries, that have vast oil and gas reserves. You wont even mention a very friendly country namely Israel.
Friends, In last 10 years, Israel has seen some of the world's largest gas and oil discoveries.
the problem was these oil and gas reserves were inaccessible and too expensive to extract. But rapid advancement in technology has changed the game.
And last year, Israel has put its 24 exploration blocks up for the auction. No need to worry friends, None of these block is in disputed water of Mediterranean Sea.
In this background, Indian petroleum minister Dharmendra Pradhan himself visited Israel in the month of September to lead from the front Indian efforts in this area.
After doing all the necessary research ground work, You would be surprised to know, Consortium of Indian firms including ONGC Videsh, Bharat Petro Resources, Indian Oil corporation and Oil India have submitted bid for all the 24 blocks on 15 November.
Besides Indian Consortium, one European firm has also submitted bids.
Yes, this round attracted only two Bids. Perhaps fear of backlash from Gulf Countries might have played role in this.
Anyways, Given our massive energy needs, we cannot afford to be afraid of possible adverse reaction from major oil producing countries.
Given that, Israel was looking for two or three foreign exploration groups. The chances are good that Indian consortium will get at least few blocks.
We would like to assume that Indian proposal should be very good. and it would win the competitive bidding.
In January, Israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to visit India, we hope to get really good news in this visit.
Israel has been over major defense supplier. the time has come to elevate the level of friendship in the area of Energy supplies also.
Upon successful oil and gas exploration and development of these blocks, Israel will be able to fulfill its domestic energy needs and could also become net exporter.
That's why our GujaratiPrime Minister visited Israel at the risk of annoying all Arab nations. Some of you might have said, he is just enjoying the foreign visits. Now you know, There is hard core real business going on behind those visits.
It was good that Indian oil minister himself took interest in this bid. Hopefully, we have learnt few important lessons from the failures of Farzad B gas field project, and we have already applied them in our proposal this time. In case, we win this bid, In the agreement itself, we need to ensure that past of Farzad B gas field is not repeated in Mediterranean Sea.
Experience suggests, Israel is dependable friend and we should not face the problems, that we have faced with Iran.
As we all know, The freedom to Choose from number of available options prevents the exploitation.
Indian side did their job, lets wait till the results of this round of bidding is out.
As per your views, Just like other countries, India should have stayed away from this competitive bidding to appease Arab nations, after all they have always been our major oil suppliers?
Please let us know your views in comment section below.

India, one of the fastest growing oil demand centers in Asia, has added the US to its long list of crude suppliers.
Early this month, Indian Oil Corp sealed its first deal to import US crude. This was followed shortly by BPCL's purchase of Mars and Poseidon grades.
Sambit Mohanty, S&P Global Platts senior editor for oil news and analysis, explains why India's diversification is crucial and what it could mean to Middle Eastern suppliers.

New Delhi: India Monday evacuated all its oil employees from strife-torn South Sudan and shut down oilfields amid escalating violence in the world's youngest nation.
All 11 executives working on 40,000 barrels per day GreaterNile Oil Project and Block 5A were airlifted, a top source with direct knowledge of the development said.
"The evacuation happened in two batches. All the officials have arrived in India safely," he said.
Before departure, the last job the Indian executives did was to shut down the oilfields yesterday.
ONGC Videsh Ltd, the overseas arm of state-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corp (ONGC), had deputed 11 employees at Greater Nile Oil Project and Block 5A in Sudan.
The company made all arrangements to evacuate its personnel as rebel forces loyal to deposed South SudaneseVice PresidentRiek Machar captured Unity state which housed most of the fields it was operating.
OVL owns 25 percent stake in the Greater Nile Oil Project which produces about 40,000 barrels of oil per day and 24.125 percent in Block 5A that produced 5,000 bpd.
Other partners in the blocks - China'sCNPC and Petronas of Malaysia too have decided to evacuate their officials from South Sudan, the source said.
Fighting in South Sudan, which broke out on December 15, has already claimed as many as 500 lives, including Indian soldiers working as United Nations peacekeepers.
The source said rebels so far have not captured any of OVL's oil wells but as a precaution all of them were shut before officials left the country.

Natural gas

Natural gas is a naturally occurring hydrocarbongas mixture consisting primarily of methane, but commonly including varying amounts of other higher alkanes, and sometimes a small percentage of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and/or hydrogen sulfide. It is formed when layers of decomposing plant and animal matter are exposed to intense heat and pressure supplied by existing under the surface over millions of years. The energy that the plants originally obtained from the sun is stored in the form of chemical bonds in the gas.

Natural gas is found in deep underground rock formations or associated with other hydrocarbon reservoirs in coal beds and as methane clathrates. Petroleum is another resource and fossil fuel found in close proximity to, and with natural gas. Most natural gas was created over time by two mechanisms: biogenic and thermogenic. Biogenic gas is created by methanogenic organisms in marshes, bogs, landfills, and shallow sediments. Deeper in the earth, at greater temperature and pressure, thermogenic gas is created from buried organic material.

Indian Oil Corporation

Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IndianOil) is India's largest commercial enterprise headquartered in Delhi, with a sales turnover of Rs. 4,50,756 crore (US$ 73.7 billion) and profits of Rs. 5,273 crore for the year 2014-15. It is also the leading Indian corporate in Fortune's prestigious 'Global 500' listing of the world's largest corporates, ranked at the 119th position for the year 2015.

As India's flagship national oil company, with a 33,000-strong work-force currently, IndianOil has been meeting India’s energy demands for over half a century. With a corporate vision to be 'The Energy of India' and to become 'A globally admired company,' IndianOil's business interests straddle the entire hydrocarbon value-chain – from refining, pipeline transportation and marketing of petroleum products to exploration & production of crude oil & gas, marketing of natural gas and petrochemicals, besides forays into alternative energy and globalisation of downstream operations.

Having set up subsidiaries in Sri Lanka, Mauritius and the UAE, the Corporation is simultaneously scouting for new business opportunities in the energy markets of Asia and Africa. It has also formed about 20 joint ventures with reputed business partners from India and abroad to pursue diverse business interests.

ONGC : Oil and Natural Gas Commission of India

Since its inception, ONGC has been instrumental in transforming the country's limited upstream sector into a large viable playing field, with its activities spread throughout India and significantly in overseas territories. In the inland areas, ONGC not only found new resources in Assam but also established new oil province in Cambay basin (Gujarat), while adding new petroliferous areas in the Assam-Arakan FoldBelt and East coast basins (both inland and offshore).
ONGC went offshore in early 70's and discovered a giant oil field in the form of Bombay High, now known as Mumbai High. This discovery, along with subsequent discoveries of huge oil and gas fields in Western offshore changed the oil scenario of the country. Subsequently, over 5 billion tonnes of hydrocarbons, which were present ...

The Largest Oil Rig in The World

Perdido is the deepest floating oil rig (platform) in the world at a water depth of about 2450 meters operated by the Shell Oil Company in the Gulf of Mexico.
The Perdido is located in the Perdido fold belt which is a rich discovery of crude oil and natural gas that lies in water that is nearly 8000 feet deep. The platform's peak production will be 100,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day. At 267 meters, the Perdido is nearly as tall as the Eiffel Tower.
An oil rig is a large structure with facilities to drill wells, to extract and process oil and natural gas, and to temporarily store product until it can be brought to shore for refining and marketing. In many cases, the platform contains facilities to house the workforce as well.

Is India's appetite for US crude oil sustainable?

India, one of the fastest growing oil demand centers in Asia, has added the US to its long list of crude suppliers.
Early this month, Indian Oil Corp sealed its first deal to import US crude. This was followed shortly by BPCL's purchase of Mars and Poseidon grades.
Sambit Mohanty, S&P Global Platts senior editor for oil news and analysis, explains why India's diversification is crucial and what it could mean to Middle Eastern suppliers.

India shuts down South Sudan oilfields, evacuates employees

New Delhi: India Monday evacuated all its oil employees from strife-torn South Sudan and shut down oilfields amid escalating violence in the world's youngest nation.
All 11 executives working on 40,000 barrels per day GreaterNile Oil Project and Block 5A were airlifted, a top source with direct knowledge of the development said.
"The evacuation happened in two batches. All the officials have arrived in India safely," he said.
Before departure, the last job the Indian executives did was to shut down the oilfields yesterday.
ONGC Videsh Ltd, the overseas arm of state-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corp (ONGC), had deputed 11 employees at Greater Nile Oil Project and Block 5A in Sudan.
The company made all arrangements to evacuate its personnel as rebel forces loyal to deposed South Sudanese...

INDIA in Race for IRANs OILFields with CHINAJAPANKorea . Race for IRANs OIL Fields between INDIA CHINA JAPAN . India's oil imports from Iran plunge over gas field row . India imports 3 times of Oils from Iran . Iran Exports Oil to India after Ban lift in 2016 . India is the 2nd largest oil importer of Iran . Iran Ban Lift .
India's oil imports from Iran have fallen to their lowest since June 2016, shipping data shows, in possible retaliation for Tehran not awarding a gas field development to Indian companies.
India, Iran's top oil client after China, shipped in 487,600 barrels per day (bpd) in May, about 9 percent less compared with April and nearly 40 percent less than a peak registered in October, according to ship tracking data obtained from sources and data compiled by Thomson Reuters Oil Research & Forecasts.
Most Western-led sanctions against Tehran's nuclear programme were lifted in January last year, and India's Iranian crude imports began climbing two months later in March.
In the fiscal year to March 2018, though, India has said it plans to order about a quarter less Iranian crude due to a snub over development of Iran's Farzad B gas field.
"We stood by them in difficult times. We still buy substantial amounts of oil from them, and we expect reciprocity from Iran," Indian oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan told reporters on Wednesday when asked if India was still hopeful of getting the development rights for the Farzad B field.
Following years of seeming rapprochement over the field, Iran has likely reached an agreement on the concession with Russia's state-controlled gas giant Gazprom, Russian and Indian media have reported.
Iran last month said India had not offered an acceptable proposal on the Farzad B development.
Sri Paravaikkarasu of energy consultancy FGE said India's lower Iran imports were a "reaction of Iran's decision to award the gas field to Russia and the availability of cheaper grades like those from Russia."
India was one of four countries - China, Japan and South Korea being the other three - that continued to import large amounts of Iranian oil after sanctions were toughened in 2012.
Some of the drop in imports from Iran may be due to lower demand. Overall, India imported about 4.2 percent less oil in May, compared with April, due to a shutdown of the 180,000-bpd Bathinda refinery for upgrades.
In the first five months of 2017, India's oil imports from Iran still jumped about 64 percent, the data showed.
Also In MoneyNews
While Iran's oil exports to India are stalling, supplies to Europe and Turkey hit their highest level since the lifting of sanctions in 2016.
Iraq continued to be India's biggest oil supplier for the second month in a row in May, followed by Saudi Arabia.
Middle Eastern oil in May accounted for 65 percent of India's overall imports, compared to 71 percent a year ago, while the import share of Africa and Latin America have risen, the data showed.
The shift is likely a result of an effort led by the Middle East-dominated Organization of the Petroleum ExportingCountries (OPEC) to cut production to prop up oil prices.

Since its inception, ONGC has been instrumental in transforming the country's limited upstream sector into a large viable playing field, with its activities spread throughout India and significantly in overseas territories. In the inland areas, ONGC not only found new resources in Assam but also established new oil province in Cambay basin (Gujarat), while adding new petroliferous areas in the Assam-Arakan FoldBelt and East coast basins (both inland and offshore).
ONGC went offshore in early 70's and discovered a giant oil field in the form of Bombay High, now known as Mumbai High. This discovery, along with subsequent discoveries of huge oil and gas fields in Western offshore changed the oil scenario of the country. Subsequently, over 5 billion tonnes of hydrocarbons, which were present in the country, were discovered. The most important contribution of ONGC, however, is its self-reliance and development of core competence in E&P activities at a globally competitive level.
Today, Oil and Natural Gas CorporationLtd. (ONGC) is, the leader in Exploration & Production (E&P) activities in India contributing 72 per cent to India’s total production of crude oil and 48 per cent of natural gas.
ONGC’s quest for energy goes deeper than setting new benchmarks in deep-water drilling in the Krishna Godavari Basin or finding new frontiers of energy. Global decline in crude prices notwithstanding, we have taken significant investment decisions diligently and aggressively, reversing the production trend in offshore. And now we are venturing into deeper offshore plays in our quest for energy security. It is this journey that has placed us among Fortune “World’s Most Admired Companies” and ranked us 3rd in the E&P industry globally on the Platts Top 250 Rankings 2014.

Hello Friends, I welcome you with a new video on my channel RealQuickInfo.
We hope, you will like this video. PleaseLet us share Real Quick Analysis with you in future as well, so please subscribe our channel Real Quick Info. Please don't forget to click on Bell icon as well to get notification, as soon as we upload interesting new video.
Now Lets discuss about today's topic.
India is third largest oil consumer in the world. Our oil demand is naturally bound to increase rapidly in future. You know, Majority of our crude oil is imported from Gulf Countries.
Needless to say, Indian foreign policy and our diplomatic choices were always impacted by this over dependence on Arab Gulf countries.
No wonder, How Modi became first Indian Prime Minister visiting Israel.
The need to diversify the source of crude oil has always been felt, and you remember, India recently imported crude oil from America.
Indian oil companies discovered the Farzad B gas field in Iran in 2008. The deal got stuck in to negotiations, and there is almost no hope that India would get the developmental rights for this gas field in Iran.
Anyways, now its time to move on.
If we ask you, which are the countries, that have vast oil and gas reserves. You wont even mention a very friendly country namely Israel.
Friends, In last 10 years, Israel has seen some of the world's largest gas and oil discoveries.
the problem was these oil and gas reserves were inaccessible and too expensive to extract. But rapid advancement in technology has changed the game.
And last year, Israel has put its 24 exploration blocks up for the auction. No need to worry friends, None of these block is in disputed water of Mediterranean Sea.
In this background, Indian petroleum minister Dharmendra Pradhan himself visited Israel in the month of September to lead from the front Indian efforts in this area.
After doing all the necessary research ground work, You would be surprised to know, Consortium of Indian firms including ONGC Videsh, Bharat Petro Resources, Indian Oil corporation and Oil India have submitted bid for all the 24 blocks on 15 November.
Besides Indian Consortium, one European firm has also submitted bids.
Yes, this round attracted only two Bids. Perhaps fear of backlash from Gulf Countries might have played role in this.
Anyways, Given our massive energy needs, we cannot afford to be afraid of possible adverse reaction from major oil producing countries.
Given that, Israel was looking for two or three foreign exploration groups. The chances are good that Indian consortium will get at least few blocks.
We would like to assume that Indian proposal should be very good. and it would win the competitive bidding.
In January, Israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to visit India, we hope to get really good news in this visit.
Israel has been over major defense supplier. the time has come to elevate the level of friendship in the area of Energy supplies also.
Upon successful oil and gas exploration and development of these blocks, Israel will be able to fulfill its domestic energy needs and could also become net exporter.
That's why our GujaratiPrime Minister visited Israel at the risk of annoying all Arab nations. Some of you might have said, he is just enjoying the foreign visits. Now you know, There is hard core real business going on behind those visits.
It was good that Indian oil minister himself took interest in this bid. Hopefully, we have learnt few important lessons from the failures of Farzad B gas field project, and we have already applied them in our proposal this time. In case, we win this bid, In the agreement itself, we need to ensure that past of Farzad B gas field is not repeated in Mediterranean Sea.
Experience suggests, Israel is dependable friend and we should not face the problems, that we have faced with Iran.
As we all know, The freedom to Choose from number of available options prevents the exploitation.
Indian side did their job, lets wait till the results of this round of bidding is out.
As per your views, Just like other countries, India should have stayed away from this competitive bidding to appease Arab nations, after all they have always been our major oil suppliers?
Please let us know your views in comment section below.

Early this month, Indian Oil Corp sealed its first deal to import US crude. This was followed shortly by BPCL's purchase of Mars and Poseidon grades.
Sambit Mohanty, S&P Global Platts senior editor for oil news and analysis, explains why India's diversification is crucial and what it could mean to Middle Eastern suppliers.

India shuts down South Sudan oilfields, evacuates employees

New Delhi: India Monday evacuated all its oil employees from strife-torn South Sudan and shut down oilfields amid escalating violence in the world's youngest nation.
All 11 executives working on 40,000 barrels per day GreaterNile Oil Project and Block 5A were airlifted, a top source with direct knowledge of the development said.
"The evacuation happened in two batches. All the officials have arrived in India safely," he said.
Before departure, the last job the Indian executives did was to shut down the oilfields yesterday.
ONGC Videsh Ltd, the overseas arm of state-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corp (ONGC), had deputed 11 employees at Greater Nile Oil Project and Block 5A in Sudan.
The company made all arrangements to evacuate its personnel as rebel forces loyal to deposed South SudaneseVice PresidentRiek Machar captured Unity state which housed most of the fields it was operating.
OVL owns 25 percent stake in the Greater Nile Oil Project which produces about 40,000 barrels of oil per day and 24.125 percent in Block 5A that produced 5,000 bpd.
Other partners in the blocks - China'sCNPC and Petronas of Malaysia too have decided to evacuate their officials from South Sudan, the source said.
Fighting in South Sudan, which broke out on December 15, has already claimed as many as 500 lives, including Indian soldiers working as United Nations peacekeepers.
The source said rebels so far have not captured any of OVL's oil wells but as a precaution all of them were shut before officials left the country.

Traveling Iran by train | DW Documentary

Iran is opening its doors to foreigners and a train ride from the Persian Gulf to the Caspian Sea is a great way to get to know the country and its people.
The travel restrictions that are now being lifted were in place for decades. Many Iranians are hoping they will now be able to lead a freer life – and we meet many of these hospitable and welcoming people on our journey through the Middle Eastern nation.
The country’s most important rail link, the Trans-Iranian Railway, runs for approximately 1400 kilometers from the Persian Gulf via Teheran to the Caspian Sea. The journey starts in Khorramshahr on the Shatt al-Arab, the river border between Iraq and Iran.
Traveling past oil fields, the train reaches Shushtar. One of the top sights here is the historic hydraulic system, now a UNESCO...

Making Indian Migrants- NationalBranding and Localized Disruptions in the Migration of Workers to the Persian Gulf
Every year, over one million Indian men travel to work in the countries of the Arabic-speaking Gulf. This talk considers why Indians travel to the Gulf and, in particular, examines the process through which workers migrate to the oilfields.

Speaker Bio
Andrea Wright recently finished her PhD in anthropology and history from the University of Michigan and is currently a visiting scholar at the Institute for South Asia Studies at the University of California, Berkeley. Her research examines how energy production, worker activities, government policies, and the environment interact. Using anthropological and historical methodology and perspectives, she asks how people give shape to and are impacted by energy production and global warming. Dr. Wright's forthcoming book, “Migratory Pipelines,” looks at the historic and contemporary migration of Indians to work in the oilfields of the Arabic-speaking Persian Gulf and explores how labor practices and migrant networks help shape an international oil economy. For this project, she has conducted ethnographic and archival research in India and the United Arab Emirates.

INDIA in Race for IRANs OIL Fields with CHINA JAPAN Korea

INDIA in Race for IRANs OILFields with CHINAJAPANKorea . Race for IRANs OIL Fields between INDIA CHINA JAPAN . India's oil imports from Iran plunge over gas field row . India imports 3 times of Oils from Iran . Iran Exports Oil to India after Ban lift in 2016 . India is the 2nd largest oil importer of Iran . Iran Ban Lift .
India's oil imports from Iran have fallen to their lowest since June 2016, shipping data shows, in possible retaliation for Tehran not awarding a gas field development to Indian companies.
India, Iran's top oil client after China, shipped in 487,600 barrels per day (bpd) in May, about 9 percent less compared with April and nearly 40 percent less than a peak registered in October, according to ship tracking data obtained from sources and data compiled by Thomson Reuters Oil Research & Forecasts.
Most Western-led sanctions against Tehran's nuclear programme were lifted in January last year, and India's Iranian crude imports began climbing two months later in March.
In the fiscal year to March 2018, though, India has said it plans to order about a quarter less Iranian crude due to a snub over development of Iran's Farzad B gas field.
"We stood by them in difficult times. We still buy substantial amounts of oil from them, and we expect reciprocity from Iran," Indian oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan told reporters on Wednesday when asked if India was still hopeful of getting the development rights for the Farzad B field.
Following years of seeming rapprochement over the field, Iran has likely reached an agreement on the concession with Russia's state-controlled gas giant Gazprom, Russian and Indian media have reported.
Iran last month said India had not offered an acceptable proposal on the Farzad B development.
Sri Paravaikkarasu of energy consultancy FGE said India's lower Iran imports were a "reaction of Iran's decision to award the gas field to Russia and the availability of cheaper grades like those from Russia."
India was one of four countries - China, Japan and South Korea being the other three - that continued to import large amounts of Iranian oil after sanctions were toughened in 2012.
Some of the drop in imports from Iran may be due to lower demand. Overall, India imported about 4.2 percent less oil in May, compared with April, due to a shutdown of the 180,000-bpd Bathinda refinery for upgrades.
In the first five months of 2017, India's oil imports from Iran still jumped about 64 percent, the data showed.
Also In MoneyNews
While Iran's oil exports to India are stalling, supplies to Europe and Turkey hit their highest level since the lifting of sanctions in 2016.
Iraq continued to be India's biggest oil supplier for the second month in a row in May, followed by Saudi Arabia.
Middle Eastern oil in May accounted for 65 percent of India's overall imports, compared to 71 percent a year ago, while the import share of Africa and Latin America have risen, the data showed.
The shift is likely a result of an effort led by the Middle East-dominated Organization of the Petroleum ExportingCountries (OPEC) to cut production to prop up oil prices.

ONGC : Oil and Natural Gas Commission of India

Since its inception, ONGC has been instrumental in transforming the country's limited upstream sector into a large viable playing field, with its activities spread throughout India and significantly in overseas territories. In the inland areas, ONGC not only found new resources in Assam but also established new oil province in Cambay basin (Gujarat), while adding new petroliferous areas in the Assam-Arakan FoldBelt and East coast basins (both inland and offshore).
ONGC went offshore in early 70's and discovered a giant oil field in the form of Bombay High, now known as Mumbai High. This discovery, along with subsequent discoveries of huge oil and gas fields in Western offshore changed the oil scenario of the country. Subsequently, over 5 billion tonnes of hydrocarbons, which were present in the country, were discovered. The most important contribution of ONGC, however, is its self-reliance and development of core competence in E&P activities at a globally competitive level.
Today, Oil and Natural Gas CorporationLtd. (ONGC) is, the leader in Exploration & Production (E&P) activities in India contributing 72 per cent to India’s total production of crude oil and 48 per cent of natural gas.
ONGC’s quest for energy goes deeper than setting new benchmarks in deep-water drilling in the Krishna Godavari Basin or finding new frontiers of energy. Global decline in crude prices notwithstanding, we have taken significant investment decisions diligently and aggressively, reversing the production trend in offshore. And now we are venturing into deeper offshore plays in our quest for energy security. It is this journey that has placed us among Fortune “World’s Most Admired Companies” and ranked us 3rd in the E&P industry globally on the Platts Top 250 Rankings 2014.

The Largest Oil Rig in The World

Perdido is the deepest floating oil rig (platform) in the world at a water depth of about 2450 meters operated by the Shell Oil Company in the Gulf of Mexico.
The Perdido is located in the Perdido fold belt which is a rich discovery of crude oil and natural gas that lies in water that is nearly 8000 feet deep. The platform's peak production will be 100,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day. At 267 meters, the Perdido is nearly as tall as the Eiffel Tower.
An oil rig is a large structure with facilities to drill wells, to extract and process oil and natural gas, and to temporarily store product until it can be brought to shore for refining and marketing. In many cases, the platform contains facilities to house the workforce as well.

Hello Friends, I welcome you with a new video on my channel RealQuickInfo.
We hope, you will like this video. PleaseLet us share Real Quick Analysis with you in future as well, so please subscribe our channel Real Quick Info. Please don't forget to click on Bell icon as well to get notification, as soon as we upload interesting new video.
Now Lets discuss about today's topic.
India is third largest oil consumer in the world. Our oil demand is naturally bound to increase rapidly in future. You know, Majority of our crude oil is imported from Gulf Countries.
Needless to say, Indian foreign policy and our diplomatic choices were always impacted by this over dependence on Arab Gulf countries.
No wonder, How Modi became first Indian Prime Minister visiting Israel.
The need to diversify the source of crude oil has always been felt, and you remember, India recently imported crude oil from America.
Indian oil companies discovered the Farzad B gas field in Iran in 2008. The deal got stuck in to negotiations, and there is almost no hope that India would get the developmental rights for this gas field in Iran.
Anyways, now its time to move on.
If we ask you, which are the countries, that have vast oil and gas reserves. You wont even mention a very friendly country namely Israel.
Friends, In last 10 years, Israel has seen some of the world's largest gas and oil discoveries.
the problem was these oil and gas reserves were inaccessible and too expensive to extract. But rapid advancement in technology has changed the game.
And last year, Israel has put its 24 exploration blocks up for the auction. No need to worry friends, None of these block is in disputed water of Mediterranean Sea.
In this background, Indian petroleum minister Dharmendra Pradhan himself visited Israel in the month of September to lead from the front Indian efforts in this area.
After doing all the necessary research ground work, You would be surprised to know, Consortium of Indian firms including ONGC Videsh, Bharat Petro Resources, Indian Oil corporation and Oil India have submitted bid for all the 24 blocks on 15 November.
Besides Indian Consortium, one European firm has also submitted bids.
Yes, this round attracted only two Bids. Perhaps fear of backlash from Gulf Countries might have played role in this.
Anyways, Given our massive energy needs, we cannot afford to be afraid of possible adverse reaction from major oil producing countries.
Given that, Israel was looking for two or three foreign exploration groups. The chances are good that Indian consortium will get at least few blocks.
We would like to assume that Indian proposal should be very good. and it would win the competitive bidding.
In January, Israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to visit India, we hope to get really good news in this visit.
Israel has been over major defense supplier. the time has come to elevate the level of friendship in the area of Energy supplies also.
Upon successful oil and gas exploration and development of these blocks, Israel will be able to fulfill its domestic energy needs and could also become net exporter.
That's why our GujaratiPrime Minister visited Israel at the risk of annoying all Arab nations. Some of you might have said, he is just enjoying the foreign visits. Now you know, There is hard core real business going on behind those visits.
It was good that Indian oil minister himself took interest in this bid. Hopefully, we have learnt few important lessons from the failures of Farzad B gas field project, and we have already applied them in our proposal this time. In case, we win this bid, In the agreement itself, we need to ensure that past of Farzad B gas field is not repeated in Mediterranean Sea.
Experience suggests, Israel is dependable friend and we should not face the problems, that we have faced with Iran.
As we all know, The freedom to Choose from number of available options prevents the exploitation.
Indian side did their job, lets wait till the results of this round of bidding is out.
As per your views, Just like other countries, India should have stayed away from this competitive bidding to appease Arab nations, after all they have always been our major oil suppliers?
Please let us know your views in comment section below.

Is India's appetite for US crude oil sustainable?

India, one of the fastest growing oil demand centers in Asia, has added the US to its long list of crude suppliers.
Early this month, Indian Oil Corp sealed its first deal to import US crude. This was followed shortly by BPCL's purchase of Mars and Poseidon grades.
Sambit Mohanty, S&P Global Platts senior editor for oil news and analysis, explains why India's diversification is crucial and what it could mean to Middle Eastern suppliers.

India shuts down South Sudan oilfields, evacuates employees

New Delhi: India Monday evacuated all its oil employees from strife-torn South Sudan and shut down oilfields amid escalating violence in the world's youngest nation.
All 11 executives working on 40,000 barrels per day GreaterNile Oil Project and Block 5A were airlifted, a top source with direct knowledge of the development said.
"The evacuation happened in two batches. All the officials have arrived in India safely," he said.
Before departure, the last job the Indian executives did was to shut down the oilfields yesterday.
ONGC Videsh Ltd, the overseas arm of state-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corp (ONGC), had deputed 11 employees at Greater Nile Oil Project and Block 5A in Sudan.
The company made all arrangements to evacuate its personnel as rebel forces loyal to deposed South SudaneseVice PresidentRiek Machar captured Unity state which housed most of the fields it was operating.
OVL owns 25 percent stake in the Greater Nile Oil Project which produces about 40,000 barrels of oil per day and 24.125 percent in Block 5A that produced 5,000 bpd.
Other partners in the blocks - China'sCNPC and Petronas of Malaysia too have decided to evacuate their officials from South Sudan, the source said.
Fighting in South Sudan, which broke out on December 15, has already claimed as many as 500 lives, including Indian soldiers working as United Nations peacekeepers.
The source said rebels so far have not captured any of OVL's oil wells but as a precaution all of them were shut before officials left the country.

Traveling Iran by train | DW Documentary

Iran is opening its doors to foreigners and a train ride from the Persian Gulf to the Caspian Sea is a great way to get to know the country and its people.
The travel restrictions that are now being lifted were in place for decades. Many Iranians are hoping they will now be able to lead a freer life – and we meet many of these hospitable and welcoming people on our journey through the Middle Eastern nation.
The country’s most important rail link, the Trans-Iranian Railway, runs for approximately 1400 kilometers from the Persian Gulf via Teheran to the Caspian Sea. The journey starts in Khorramshahr on the Shatt al-Arab, the river border between Iraq and Iran.
Traveling past oil fields, the train reaches Shushtar. One of the top sights here is the historic hydraulic system, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. After that, the train heads up into the Zagros Mountains. The journey is interrupted by a break for prayer. Breath-taking landscapes move past the train window until we reach the highest point not only of our journey but of the entire rail network: 2,200 meters above sea level between Dorud and Arak.
During a brief stop in Qom, travelers can refuel with sohan, a pastry made of wheat germ, flour and sugar. The next section of the track is high-speed and we continue on to Teheran at 160 km/h. The metropolitan area is home to more than 15 million people. The last leg takes us to the north of the country.
In theAlborz Mountains, we find out what role the Trans-Iranian Railway played during Stalin’s major offensive against the German army in World War II. Our oriental rail adventure ends in Bandar-e Torkaman on the Caspian Sea.

Making Indian Migrants

http://southasia.berkeley.edu/
Making Indian Migrants- NationalBranding and Localized Disruptions in the Migration of Workers to the Persian Gulf
Every year, over one million Indian men travel to work in the countries of the Arabic-speaking Gulf. This talk considers why Indians travel to the Gulf and, in particular, examines the process through which workers migrate to the oilfields. I argue that networks built by Indian traders and British colonial officials are used today to move workers to the Gulf. In addition, in the contemporary moment, government officials and agents rely on the idea of India’s brand image to organize labor migration. Disrupting these migratory policies are the practices of the workers, themselves, who develop localized networks in order to facilitate migration. Drawing on ethnographic and archival materials, this talk illustrates how different social relationships, which are mobilized by migration, give shape to the Indian nation.
Speaker Bio
Andrea Wright recently finished her PhD in anthropology and history from the University of Michigan and is currently a visiting scholar at the Institute for South Asia Studies at the University of California, Berkeley. Her research examines how energy production, worker activities, government policies, and the environment interact. Using anthropological and historical methodology and perspectives, she asks how people give shape to and are impacted by energy production and global warming. Dr. Wright's forthcoming book, “Migratory Pipelines,” looks at the historic and contemporary migration of Indians to work in the oilfields of the Arabic-speaking Persian Gulf and explores how labor practices and migrant networks help shape an international oil economy. For this project, she has conducted ethnographic and archival research in India and the United Arab Emirates.
